Type: Program Effective Date: 5/1/2017 Section: 28 Revision Number: 02 Status: Issued Last Revised: 2/15/2021 Page 12 of 18 b) If a spill occurs it shall be washed away completely, evaporated, or equivalent action taken to control vapors before restarting the engine. Fuel tank caps shall be replaced before starting the engine. c) A good metal-to-metal contact shall be kept between fuel supply tank or nozzle of supply hose and the fuel tank. d) No open lights, welding, or sparking equipment shall be used near internal combustion equipment being fueled or near storage tanks. e) No smoking shall be permitted at or near the gasoline storage area or on equipment being fueled. Post a conspicuous sign in each fuel storage and fueling area stating: "NO SMOKING WITHIN 25 FEET." f) Class I liquids shall not be dispensed by pressure from drums, barrels, and similar containers. Approved pumps taking suction through the top of the container or approved self-closing faucets shall be used. g) No repairs shall be made to equipment while it is being fueled. h) Each fuel storage tank or drum shall have the word "Flammable" conspicuously marked thereon and should also have a similarly sized word indicating the contents of the container. i) A dry chemical or carbon dioxide fire extinguisher rated 6: ABC or larger shall be in a location accessible to the fueling area. VI. OVERHEAD POWWERLINES A. Procedure 1. Any vehicle or mechanical equipment capable of having parts of its structure elevated near overhead power lines shall be operated so that a minimum clearance distance of 20 feet is maintained. When it is difficult for the equipment operator to maintain the safe clearance distance, a person shall be designated to observe the clearance and warn the operator. 2. Safe clearance distance may be reduced under the following conditions a) Overhead power lines that have been de-energized and grounded by the utility or owners of the lines do not require safe clearance distances unless dictated by the utility or owner. All power lines shall be considered to be energized until utility representatives or owners of the lines state that they are de-energized and grounded. b) If insulating barriers are installed to prevent contact with lines, and if the barriers are rated for the voltage of the line being guarded, the safe clearance distance may be reduced to a distance within the designed working dimensions of the insulating barrier. This still does NOT allow contact with lines to be made with any part of the machinery. |
